4 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
CONFERENCES— HISTORICAL
In the following summary of the conferences no effort has
been made to either magnify or to minimize the facts, but to call
attention to the actual conditions as they are revealed by conference
records and church reports. Many of the churches not now report-
ing were organized for the time in which they lived and ceased to
function at the end of that time. They did not have sufficient
strength to carry them through the changes of the progressive time
into which they soon entered. Many of them were organized with-
out promise of continuance or reason for their existence. In the
enthusiasm and zeal for the cause many revival meetings were held
in schoolhouses, when a few people would enter into church rela-
tionship and organize a Christian Church. Many such were born
to die, but they did not live in vain, for some of them were the be-
ginning of larger churches. Out of some of these small beginnings
there come to be strong churches that have continued until now.
it quite often occurred that owing to bad roads, the inconvenience
of travel, that two churches would be organized not far apart, and
as preachers were not always paid a stated salary it was cheaper
and more convenient to have more meeting places, and these more
often than otherwise were the schoolhouses of the locality. There
are in the localities of these erstwhile congregations even yet many
who remain true to their original faith. Some have gone into other
denominations, some have united with other Christian Churches,
and in some localities the entire membership was absorbed in newly
organized churches. Many of our rural churches have in the last
few years yielded to the inevitable and closed their doors. There
are a number of good church buildings now unoccupied and should
be looked after by the conferences in which they are found. One
encouraging fact should not be overlooked, which is that while we
have lost in the open country, we have gained in the cities and
larger villages. We have a number of churches now in large vil-
lages and cities where the single membership is several times more
than the entire membership of a whole conference of that earlier
time. Indeed these churches represent in their separate buildings
more money and enroll in their membership more names, and pay
their preachers more salary and give more to the Kingdom of God
than some whole conferences are now doing. A study of the loca-
tion of churches and their membership will be quite illuminating
and a means of encouragement. One conference is named where
more than half of the entire membership is their one city church.
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 5
Another conference of more than forty churches reports about one-
fourth of the entire membership in two of their city churches.
These are mentioned merely to suggest a study of the situation
and for the encouraging element they afford.
ALABAMA — This conference has increased its church membership until now
twenty-eig-ht churches are reporting- to conference. Of the twenty-eig-ht,
twenty-one are in the open country with a membership of 1,686. Three are

villag-e of five hundred and has a membership of 86. And two are in villag^es
of five thousand more or less, members, 102.
C'ENTRALi ILLINOIS — As late as 1899 this conference enrolled twenty-seven
churches. There are nineteen now. Some of the inactive churches are hope-
lessly so but others are not. There are six of them that have good meeting-
houses and members who are loyal and true to their faith and profession.
Among the nineteen that reported at the last conference seven are in the
open country and have a membership of 638. Six are in villag"es of two or

or piactically so, two of them being in small villag-es. The total membership
is 174.
EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA — Has thirty-nine churches on its membership roll,
thirty-eight of them reporting membership. Of these twenty-nine, one is in
the open country with a membership of 3,548. One is in a village of two
hundred more or less and has a membership of 38. Three are in villages of
five hundred or more with a membership of 270. Three are in village of a

about five thousand and have a membership of 118. And two are in cities
with a membership of 350.
EASTERN A'IRGINIA — The Eastern Indiana and the Miami Ohio each have a
larger number of churches than the Eastern Virg-inia, but the Eastern
Virginia has the largest number of churches in cities and a larger member-
slilp than either of thein. The church membership is forty-five, seventeen
of which are in the open country and have a membership of 2,908. Seven are
in villages of two hundred more or less with a membership of 862. Six are
in villages of about five hundred and have a membership of 831. Two are in

thousand and has a membei'ship of 270. Three are in cities of ten thousand
or more with a membership of 845.
ERIE — In 1843 this conference enrolled a membership of forty-five churches. In
1889 eighteen churches were yet members. The conference roll now includes
the names of twelve, ten of which reported at the conference in 1924. What
has become of the thirty-three churches is not known to The Christian
Annual. It is safe to assume that some of the number were absorbed by
other congregations. Some may have joined other conferences and some no
doubt were born without strength to live, while others had no reason for
their existing. Of the churches reporting there are four in the open country
with a membership of 130. Three are in villages of two or three hundred.
Membership, 179. Two are in villages of five hundred and have a membership
of 145. Two are in cities and have a membership of 486.

cities with a membership of 561.
INDIANA MIAMI RESERVE — This conference has had a. church membership of
thirty-three. This year it is reporting twenty. Some of the churches by
which their number has been decreased have united with other conferences
and the membership of some others have largely been absorbed by other
churches of the conference. The territory of this conference includes some of
the richest land and many of the most prosperous farmers of Indiana. Of
the twenty churches reporting twelve are in the open country and have a
membership of 960. Four are in villages of from, two to four hundred witn
a membership of 314. One is in a village of a thousand and has a member-

a membership of 187. And one is in a village of five hundred and more with
a membership of 25.
KENTUCKY DISTRICT NUMBER ONE — The original Kentucky Christian Con-
ference was decreased in membership by the organization of the State Con-
ference which divided its churches into two districts. One and Two. District
No. One had at one time eighteen churches on its roll. It now reports three.
All of them in the open country. They have a] membership of 81. Many of
the original number have gone over to the Nazarenes and other bodies of like
character and are lost to the conference. Some people in the communities
remain loyal to their original faith and the church they first joined.

ship of 231. All the churches are in the open country.

Kentucky State Conference which is divided into Districts Number One and
Two. It has a membership of forty-two ordained ministers and nine licen-
tiates.
MAINE — The Maine Conference was formed by a session of the Eastern Maine
and Central Maine Conferences in 1895. The record of church membership
at that date included twenty-three. There are now twenty-one churches en-
rolled in the membership of the conference, fifteen of which did not report
to the conference in 1924. The six that reported all had full time preach-
ing. In some localities church edifices were built as community affairs which
makes church life easy of decay and the transfer of property quite difficult.
Word from eight of the inactive churches gives a membership of 125. Of
the six that reported one is in a village of five hundred and has a member-
ship of 88. Three are in villages of three thousand with a membership of
292 and two are in cities with a membership of 165.

came the Vermont State Conference in 1893 which in 1906 was merged into

THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 11
Webster Community Christian Church
This church was organized January 31, 1924, and within seven months
built and dedicated a house costing more than $43,000.00. The building is of
modern design and well equipped for religious worship. Christian Education,
Sunday-school, and social purposes. The building has a tower fifty-six feet
high, on top of which stands an electric cross carrying forty-two electric lights.
It is said that this cross, when lighted, can be seen for a distance of twenty
to twenty-five miles. It is located in the open country about four miles from
Havre de Grace, Maryland, and was formally dedicated on Sunday, August 23,
1924. The dedicatory sermon was by Rev. George Christian Enders, D. D. on
the subject, "The Incarnate Christ the Hope of the World." The church has
a new parsonage, fully equipped and completely modern, which was dedicated
a few weeks previous to that of the church building. At the time of dedica-
tion there were ninety-two members, none of whom had ever been members
of the Christian Church, at the time of dedication. Seven months later the
membership had about been doubled. The church is a member of the Eastern
Virginia Conference and Rev. Milton W. Sutclifi'e is pastor.
Sanfords Corner, N. Y.
As early as 1820 a group of Christian people formed a Christian Church
organization to serve the townships of Leray, Felts Mills, and Lockport in
northern New York State, with its center at Sanfords Corners, a few miles
from Watertown, N. Y., nearly a mile from what is now the railway station
of Calcium.
About 1852 a Union Church building was erected, jointly owned and con-
trolled by the Methodist, Universalist, and Christian Church bodies. For
more than twenty-five years very little active work has been carried on by
any Church organization, and all the early organizations had practically died.
In recent years a Community movement was started which continued less than
a year. At various times Sunday-school work has been carried on and the
church building has been available for funerals.
In November, 1923, Dr. J, N. Dales, as a field worker, made an investiga-
tion of the possibility of opening up an active work which would be linked
up with the East Hounsfield Christian Church, and in December, Rev. R. G.
English, pastor of East Hounsfield, took charge of afternoon preaching services
at the Union Church building.
September 7, 1924, a new church was organized to make permanent a real
community work. The charter membership of nineteen represents six different
denominations — Lutheran, Episcopal, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, and
Christian. Only one of the nineteen has ever been a member of one of our
churches before — a daughter of a former Christian Church minister at San-
fords Corners.
The auditorium has been renovated and some shingling has been done.
Improvements including estimate of volunteer labor (for all work was donated)
was estimated at three hundred dollars.
Certain conditions have made development slow, but a splendid field is
open to the Calcium Community Christian Church and Sunday-school. Two
deacons were ordained in connection with a Communion service the first Sun-
day in December, 1924. A Ladies' Aid has been organized for service.
12 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
Union Christian College
At the meeting of the Trustees of Union Christian College, August 12,
1924, it was decided that the school could not be opened in September. Pro-
visions were made for keeping the organization intact in the hope that some
unforseen providence would yet make it possible for the school to open its
doors in the near future. Rev. E. A. Watkins, D. D., Urbana, Illinois, was
elected and qualified president of the college and of the Board of Trustees.
M. S. Campbell, Collison, Illinois, was elected treasurer, and Rev. Daniel O.
Gettinger, Merom, Indiana, secretary.
Later a proposition was submitted by Mr. G. A. Bricker, associate editor of
Farm Life, Spencer, Indiana, to reopen the school with an enlarged program, to
include vocational courses of training. A meeting of the trustees of the
college was called at Merom, on December 16, 1924. Prof. J. C. Runk, of
Minneapolis, who had been fomierly associated with Mr. Bricker in vocational
training schools, was asked to be present at the meeting. After the most care-
ful consideration, the board decided that the school should be reopened in the
fall of 1925, with an enlarged program of finance and course of training.
The organization remains unchanged. Mr. Bricker was elected as adminis-
trative advisor.
In addition to a department for the training of ministers and church
leadership, departments of commerce, home making, and agriculture are to
be included as rapidly as they can be financed.
Salt Creek Christian Conference
There is in Ohio a body of believers organized as the Salt Creek Christian
Conference. It met in 1924, at the Bethel Church. The proceedings were
published in pamphlet form. It was the 104th annual session. There were
thirty-three delegates, including the conference officers, and four ministers.
The following officers were elected:
President, William Mathews, Hatch, Ohio.
Vice-President, S. W. Mossbarger, Piketon, Ohio, R. R. 2.
Secretary, Ralph Douthitt, Piketon, Ohio, R. R. 2.
Assistant Secretary, I. N. Basye, Piketon, Ohio, R. R. 2.
Treasurer, Ivy Dixon, Piketon, Ohio, R. R. 2.
District Superintendent, I. N. Basye, Piketon, Ohio, R. R. 2.
The Convention Secretary has been unable to identify this conference
beyond the information given in the published minutes. He has no reason to
believe that it is a conference of the Christian Church, but wonders, if it is
not, how it came to have the name Christian Conference a hundred and four
years ago.
The editor of The Christian Annual desires to express his appreciation of
the kindly and efficient co-operation of all who have had to do with the work.
Especial mention is made of Mr. McLefresh, and his fellow laborers, Miss
Nauerth, the proof reader, and the Convention stenographer, together with
the many others who have furnished reports and otherwise helped to make the
book a history of the church for the year 1924. And he is even thankful to
those to whom he had to write two, three, or four times that he did not have
to write another time.

of Publishing has made great strides forward the past year. Its Publishing
House at the corner of Fifth and Ludlow streets in the city of Dajrton, Ohio,
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 17
built twenty years ago was not well adapted to the expanding business of the
Association, so an opportunity to sell this House was improved and the
property sold for $175,000 cash, complete possession not to be given until May
1925, providing that a new House was not ready for occupancy before that
time.
A new location was purchased at the corner of Ludlow and Court
streets across the street from the present House for $68,000 cash. A new
Publishing House built of steel and concrete five stories high and basement
is now under construction at a cost of about $110,000. This building has
fifty percent more floor space than the old House and is constructed especially
for the publishing business. There will be three ground floor business rooms,
two will be for rent and one will be occupied by the bookstore of the Publish-
ing House. The fifth floor will be for the offices of the Departments of The
General Convention of the Christian Church, together with large board and
committee rooms which can be thrown into one large room for General Board
and Conference meetings. The fourth floor will be for rent, also office rooms
en the second and third floors. The new Publishing House will be fireproof
throughout and will be a source of pride and commanding strength to the
Christian Church.
The business of The Christian Publishing Association has shown a very
satisfactory increase the past year and under the direct charge of A. F. Chase,
Circulation Manager, both The Herald of Gospel Liberty and The Journal of
Christian Echication have shown a healthy increase in paid subscriptions and
the entire business of the Association under John H. Stewart as Manager,
has shown a substantial gain in volume.
When the new House is completed and fully equipped, the Association
will have an up-to-date home and the Christian Church a substantial and com-
modious Publishing House.
The Board of Publishing of The General Convention of the Christian
Church for the year ending September 30, 1924, has had cash receipts as
follows :
Forward Movement $ 2,500.00
Miscellaneous sources 578.57
Total $ 3,078.57
October 1, 1923, balance on hand 10,824.52
Total balance and receipts $13,903.09
Disbursements 1,286.71
October 1, 1924, balance on hand $12,616.38
The Board of Publishing at its October meeting, 1924, set aside as a
permanent fund the sum of $12,000 to be loaned and only the interest to be
used for current purposes. During the past year prize essays were awarded
to Mrs. Thomas Gray Robinson, Albany, N. Y., Rev. B. F. Vaughn, Centerville,
Ohio, Rev. S. L. Beoughei*, Graham, N. C, Rev. D. P. Hurlburt, Bangor, Maine.
These awards were made in the prize contest on certain "Principles of the
Christians."
During the year the Board has printed for free distribution thirty-three
thousand booklets, circulars, and folders. The Department is also placing
The Herald of Gospel Liberty and The Journal of Christian Education in
IS THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
strategic centers for general advertising and publicity purposes. The names
of persons and institutions to which they are sent are supplied by Rev. Alva
Martin Kerr, D. D., Editor of The Herald of Gospel Liberty and by W. A.
Harper, LL.D., editor of The Joiamal of Christian Education.
The Board of Publishing through its free publications is providing a
means by which not only our own church people but strangers as well may
become better acquainted with the history and principles of the Christian
Church,
Department of Home Missions
Rev. Onier S. Thomas, D. D., Secretary
Board of Home Missions — Rev. G. O. Lankford, D. D., Burling-ton, N. C— President.
Mrs. Athella M. Howsare, 1535 N. Euclid Ave., Dayton, Ohio — Secretary.

tary and Treasurer.

We are now thinking of the work of Home Missions in the terms of Better
Efficiency and Understanding. Under the first class we place our work for
Sustentation of Churches, Revolving Loan Fund, Field Work in Conferences,
and Pastors' Summer Schools. In the second class we place our New Ameri-
can, Mountaineer, Lumber Camp, Negro, and Indian Work. In all of these
fields during the past year there has been such growth and helpfulness as to
bring much satisfaction in considering results. Nearly nine hundred mem-
bers have been added to our home mission churches and with very few ex-
ceptions we have been able to reduce the appropriations without injury to the
churches. Last year the Board adopted the policy of requiring all churches to
plan their programs looking to self-support with the policy of reducing the
appropriation each year twenty percent. The Board reaffirmed its belief that
this policy should be continued and that churches not only cease their depend-
ence on outside aid but should work to the standard adopted last year and
extend their activities to others. The great majority of the churches are
co-operating in a fine way.
The Board voted to continue the field work on about the same basis as
heretofore, but were not able to take on additional workers although there is
now opportunity in some very needy fields. Some very excellent service has
been rendered by our field men in the conferences, especially in the way of
reviving dead churches. We can hardly measure the addition to the efficiency
of our churches through the work of the field men.
One of the most outstanding pieces of work is that of our new church
at Riverdale in Dayton. Organized the Fourth of February of last year they
plan to go to self-support during the year, having now a membership of 230
with a goal for 400 by the day of their anniversary. Walnut Hills is planning
to build immediately and their old building is being wrecked. A new chu>-—
was organized at Calcium, near Watertowm, N. Y., by Rev. R. G. English.
Appropriations were made to twenty-one churches, fifteen conferences, as>
follows: Albany, Mo., Rev. F. G. Coffin; Bangor, Me., Rev. Donald P. Hurlburt;
Brooklyn, N. Y., Rev. P. S. Sailer; Columbus, Ohio, Rev. J. S. Kegg; Crown

Christian Missionary Deficit, Home Missions Council, and Missionary Educa-
tion Movement.
The Board being asked to continue in its responsibility and support of the
Pastors' Schools by the Board of Christian Education voted to make an appro-
priation to that work on about the same basis as formerly.
Miss Marian Morrill has been asked to become the Missionary Education
Secretary for the two Boards and will have charge of much of the development
of that phase of the work co-operating with the Board of Christian Education
to some extent in developing mission study in the Sunday-schools as well as
pushing other plans of bringing Missions prominently into the activities of
the church.

1924
Commendable gains in the normal activities of our Foreign Mission work
have been made during the past year, but reconstruction has occupied a large
share of our time and energy and means.
Relief work in Japan was continued on a large scale for several months
20 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
following the earthquake, and our Tokyo missionaries and national Christians
represented our church in most commendable fashion.
We received during the year for Earthquake Relief and Reconstruction
purposes, $8,139.76, plus $3,158.34 received immediately after the disaster in
September, making a total of $11,298.10. The earlier funds were used en-
tirely for relief; the balance is now being used in reconstruction. The Azabu
church was entirely rebuilt and extensive repairs made on the Kasumi Cho
Mission Home, Oji church and kindergarten, and the Naka Shibuya church
and kindergarten. Repairs were also made on the Sendai mission home and
two of our northern churches.
The new mission home so long delayed has finally been completed in
Tokyo, to be occupied by the Garmans.
A new arrangement with the Japanese Christian Conference called the
Co-operative Board was organized this year and is functioning nicely, giving
larger responsibility to the Japanese brethren in the conduct of the work.
This is the most outstanding achievement of our Japan mission this year,
being one step nearer our ultimate goal of an indigenous Japanese church.
Miss Crew, who was sent out last year, has completed the first year of
language study and has also already done some definite work.
Two native pastors retired during the year, but two better trained men
have been secured to take their places. One of these, Mr. Taizumi, is a grad-
uate of Defiance College and a postgi-aduate of Oberlin Seminary and Chi-
cago University.
Two Bible women retired during the year, but two better trained young
women have taken their places. One is a graduate of a Bible training school.
One pastor has transferred to the superintendency of Sendai Christian
Orphanage, thus extending the sphere of our responsibility in a union enter-
prise.
One new student has been enrolled in kindergarten training schools.
Four new theological students from our churches have been added, malt-
ing a total of seven in the union seminary in which we are co-operating. Dr.
Woodworth being on the faculty. Mr. Sano, who returned last year, has been
ordained and is doing unusually fine work, both in his own church and in the
Japan Conference. The addition of these new, thoroughly trained men great-
ly strengthens the national force.
The Immigration Act is giving much concern, but is being met by a
mutually Christian spirit on the part of both missionaries and nationals.
In Japan we had only eighty-nine baptisms as against ninety-two the
previous year. But we have gained in every other department. Resident
membership increased from 692 to 730, a gain of thirty-eight; enrolled in-
quirers from 161 to 170, a gain of nine; Sunday-school enrollment from 1856
to 2436, a gain of 580; the giving of our Japanese Christian churches in the
wake of the earthquake increased from yen 5847.85 to yen 7154.08, a gain of
yen 1306.23, or $653.16. This includes an increase for pastoral support on
the part of the Japanese from yen 1231 to yen 2129, a gain of yen 898, or
$449.00.
The Japanese work is more thoroughly organized and both missionaries
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 21
and nationals of our church are becoming more fully recognized as potent
factors in the evangelization of the country.
PORTO RICO
Extensive repairs were made on the mission home in Ponce, and the
church at Arus.
Two new lots in a promising suburban section of Ponce were bought at
a cost of $400. A chapel has been moved to this new location.
The house in Salinas which we had been renting for Miss Williams' home
and industrial work was about to be sold out from under us, when a gift
of $2,800.00 to buy it was made by one of our consecrated laymen, thus saving
that work to us.
Two other laymen gave gifts of $1,000 and $100 to be used for chapel
buildings, and one conference woman's board sends something over three hun-
dred dollars toward another.
The Barretts have had a regular furlough during the year and are back
on the field after thorough medical treatment and a good rest.
The Mortons have done excellent work, first assisting Miss Williams, and
then in overseeing the repair work and acting as mission treasurer.
Mr. Rivera, who returned last year, has been put in charge of the Salinas
station, after a year's work in Ponce.
One young man was graduated from the union seminary and put in charge
of a newly established main station, where a church with twenty-five charter
members was organized in June. Two pastors were ordained this fall. Two
kindergartens and two Daily Vacation Bible Schools were successfully con-
ducted.
The membership of our Porto Rico churches was increased from 280 to
357, a gain of 77; the Sunday-school enrollment from 825 to 902, a gain of 77.
A loss in benevolent offerings was sustained, but national pastoral support
increased from $312 to $437.45, a gain of $125.45.
The Foreign Mission Department has continued its active co-operation in
various interdenominational enterprises such as the Foreign Missions Confer-
ence, Committee on Co-operation in Latin America, Missionary Education
Movement, World Alliance for International Friendship through the Churches^
Federal Council's Committee on International Justice and Goodwill, etc.
A comparison of receipts for the past two years follows :
1923 1924
General Fund $33,909.73 $33,483.33
Designated Funds 10,022.17 17,611.28
Forward Movement 15,000.00 12,500.00
Totals $58,931.90 $63,594.61
This shows a decrease of $426.40 in regular receipts, an increase of
$7,589.11 in designated funds and a decrease of $2,500 in Forward Movement
receipts. The large increase in the designated funds includes the earthquake
fund. We added during the year $3,870.00 to our permanent funds.
The present indebtedness of the Foreign Mission Department is $11,182.74.
We have had the most constructive year yet in missionary education.
Systematic missionary instruction in the Sunday-school has been constantly
stressed. During the Foreign Mission period we stressed heavily the Church
22 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
School of Missions plan with good results. In addition to this we used a
suggestive program designed to provide a short Foreign Mission Introduction
to each of the regular Sunday-school and morning preaching services for the
six weeks leading up to Foreign Mission Day. About an hundred churches used
this plan, and between fifty and sixty used the Church School of Missions
plan. Some used both.
In introducing these two plans a limited number of three different leaflets
were issued. Also a thousand posters were issued and four leaflets for free
distribution. Many churches using neither of the two plans just mentioned
did use the other leaflets for free distribution in connection with the annual
offering. One other leaflet of a general Foreign Mission character was also
issued.
The secretary has continued to edit The Christian Missionary, which this
year reached the largest number of subscribers in its history. He has given
about one hundred addresses in forty-five churches in sixteen conferences, and
in about twenty institutes and conference session, as well as on numerous
special occasions. He has traveled 13,415 miles, reaching with the spoken word
about 13,215 people, and he has represented the Department on the various
interdenominational organizations before mentioned.
This year of reconstruction has in many respects been one of unusual
strengthening of our whole cause.
1925
The following plans, adopted at this session of the Foreign Mission De-
partment, are to be carried out this coming year, 1925.
Miss Stacy is to complete her year' of furlough study at Defiance, where
she is now specializing in Bible, domestic science, music, and social psychology
in preparation for her work upon her return to Japan next August.
Mr. McKnight will come home next spring for his regular furlough and
it is expected that the school year will be spent in additional training, possibly
at Boston or Yale.
We plan to continue the training of our seven theological training stu-
dents in Japan, Dr. Woodworth continuing on the faculty of the Union Semi-
nary. He will also teach seven hours a week in the Azabu School with which
he has been so long connected. Dr. Fry and Mr. McKnight will also continue
some English teaching in addition to their other work. Mr. Carman will con-
tinue to represent us on the union enterprises in Japan and will also direct
the work of building the long delayed church and kindergarten building in
Shibuya.
Two young ladies are in the kindergarten training school this year.
Owing to the prolonged and serious illness of Miss Williams, the Mortons
will return to Salinas to continue the work there. It is expected that the
work will be enlarged somewhat by the addition of some agricultural features
on a small scale.
We plan to build in Porto Rico this year one new chapel in a promising
outpost at a cost of about $500.00. We also plan to equip our new main
station at Penuelas, opened last year, by building at least a chapel and, if
possible, a home for the pastor.
Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Fletcher have been placed under appointment to Japan
and it is expected that they will sail with Miss Stacy next August. Mr.
Fletcher enters his life-work with the most thorough preparation for his
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 23
chosen field, Japan. He is a graduate of McMaster University and is now
completing his third year at Yale, specializing in religious education and the
religions of Japan. His preliminary examinations for the Ph. D. degree are
to be taken next spring and his work during the first term in Japan will point
toward the securing of the degree on the first furlough.
We expect to continue our established plans of bringing the national
church in both fields to larger self-support each year.
Missionary education in co-operation with the Board of Christian Educa-
tion will be vigorously pushed throughout the coming year, using the methods
which were so successful last year, such as the preliminary missionary pro-
gram in the regular services during the Foreign Mission period, and the
Church School of Missions during the six weeks' period from the first of
February to the middle of March. In addition to these educational features,
the department plans to continue as much field work as is consistent with the
efiicient conduct of the office.
The Foreign Missions Convention at Washington, D. C, from January 28
to February 2 will be one of the greatest missionary conferences ever held
in this country, and the Foreign Mission Department expects to have its full
quota of thirty-six delegates present. Since the number is so limited it will
be necessary to select representative persons throughout the denomination.
It is planned to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of our entrance
into mission work in Porto Rico at the close of the twenty-fifth year in order
to co-operate with the Missionary Education Movement's plan for the study
of Latin America in 1925-1926.
Miss Ruth Kirkpatrick, Frankfort, Indiana, was placed under appoint-
ment with the understanding that she is to finish this year's teaching in the
high school and spend next year in a special missionary training school. It is
anticipated that Miss Kirkpatrick may be allocated to teach in some Union
Christian College.
The following budget was adopted:
Japan, regular work $27,000.00
Japan, special work 5,250.00 $32,250.00
Porto Rico, regular work $11,100.32
Porto Rico, special work 3,300.20 $14,400.52
Miscellaneous work 10,500.00
Total budget $57,150.52
To this must be added the deficit of $11,182.74, making the total minimum
budget absolutely necessary for next year $68,333.26. We call the attention
of the General Board and of the whole church to this situation which must
be met as a denominational matter. The only other alternative is to recall
?ome of our workers.
We would also remind the church that the actual need for the work which
should be done this year is $84,156.06 from which we have made the drastic
cut of $15,822.80 below actual requirements. And this has been done in the
face of the fact that opportunities for the development of our foreign mission
work have never been so compelling, and young people from our own homes,
trained in our own schools and consecrated to our own fields of service, are
knocking at our door asking to be sent out.

During the year 1924 we have been steadily working away at the task of
surveying, outlining, promoting, and directing a full program of Christian
education and training for Christian life and service reaching from our homes
through our churches, communities, schools, and colleges, and are beginning
to feel that the twenty years we allotted to achieve this goal are not enough.
You cannot overcome the inertia of a lifetime in any brief time. Our con-
fidence grows stronger however that we are on the right road and that the
people are at heart with us in our task when they really understand it.

Rev. W'arreii H. Denison, 1). I)., Superintendent
ORGANIZATIONAL
Conferences and local churches are constantly organizing themselves
definitely upon the five points of the Movement. This is gratifying and brings
an added unity to our work, strengthens the church program, increases
efficiency, simplifies organization, develops the spirit of co-operation. Just
as rapidly as our conferences and churches plan and put into their organiza-
tion the five departments, Devotion, Evangelism and Life Service, Christian
Education, Missions, Stewardship and Finance, will they be able to secure
larger assistance from the corresponding departments and officials of the
denomination.

All pledges are now due and should be paid in full. Some have asked for
an extension of time in view of sickness, economic conditions, and other
legitimate reasons. All should now see that the full amounts are met without
further delay so that work begun may not be crippled. I wish to register
here my appreciation of the fine spirit of our people generally.
FIELD WORK

CONTINUATION PLEDGES
As per the action of the General Board and of this Board, our office has
been soliciting those who gave cash gifts or have completed their payments on
their pledges to the Forward Movement to continue the same annually until
the donors see fit to cancel them. A letter of appreciation on behalf of the
beneficiary boards was prepared and sent out. In due time this was followed
with a personal letter of gratitude from the President of the General Con-
vention. This was followed with a letter of thanks from the Superintendent
of the Forward Movement. There was an enclosure of a sixteen page pam-
phlet, "The Christian Church Goes Forward," which sets forth clearly the
outstanding achievements by the several boards through the use of Forward
Movement funds already received. It set forth the necessity of continuing
the work. The cards of subscription are now coming to our office. They are
made payable to The General Convention of the Christian Church with the
same percentage of distribution as under the Forward Movement.

As we bring our report relative to the accomplishments of the Depart-
ment of Evangelism and Life Service for the past year, we feel deeply grati-
fied because the past year more than any other thus far has proved the need
and value of such a Department in our general organization. We have just
begun to realize on the time and thought and money invested in the Depart-
ment. During the past year, the Department has made a definite contribution
to the denomination by its Kingdom Enlistment Week Program which this
Board formed, adopted, and recommended to the General Board one year ago.
The General Secretary of the Department of Evangelism and Life Service
represented the denomination in various interdenominational gatherings dur-
ing the year in the interest of a constructive program of Evangelism. Kept
in correspondence with a number of leading pastors in responding to their
requests for counsel in their program of Evangelism in the local church, and
spoke on denominational Conference and Regional Convention programs.
He attended all but one of the meetings of the Federal Council Com-
mission on Evangelism and Life Service during the year, and was a member
of the Federal Council Evangelistic Team visiting four of the principal cities
of New York State on an itinerary January, 192'4, and spoke at from two to
three union meetings in each of the cities. The Board of Evangelism con-
sidered that this annual itinerary of the Federal Council Commission of Evan-
gelism under the leadership of Dr. Chas. L. Goodell is one of the most im-

portant contributions it can make toward the objective of establishing our
denominational identity in the various cities.
In June the General Secretary and the Executive Secretary attended a
most interesting and profitable Conference on Evangelism at Northfield,
Massachusetts, as guests of the Federal Council. At this Conference, Secre-
taries of Evangelism of the different denominations met in retreat for three
days of study and meditation upon the great responsibility of the Church of
today in the work of Evangelism.
Following are some of the topics considered at this important Conference:
Theme: Present Day Appeal to Non-Christians.
Why ask men to unite with the church?
How much emphasis on negatives?
What has the church to offer?
How present the appeal?
Theme: A Fall Church Program.
The advantage of a fall rally.
The fellowship canvass.
Theme: A Program of Personal Evangelism.
Possibility of School of Evangelism to train personal workers.
Comparison of members who are received through personal campaigns
with those received through evangelistic meetings.
Laymen and a successful personal f-vangelistic campaign.
Theme: Syndicated Literature.
General discussion of devotional literature.
Theme: Absentee Member.
How shall we relnterest resident absentees?
What shall be the method with non-residents?
When drop names from church roll?
30 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
How should this be done?
Theme: The Pastor's Part in a Modern Program of Evangelism.
Theme: Church Attendance Campaign for Interesting Non-churchgoing
People.
Shall we have an interdenominational plan?
What shall be the elements of a go-to-church program? How promoted?
Theme: The Requirements for Church Membership.
What shall be the minimum requirements?
Who shall determine these in the local church?
How enforce?
Theme: Financing an Evangelistic Program.
Theme: After a Man Becomes a Member of the Church, What Then?
The Church's part in training a new member in personal devotion and
responsibility of church membership.
The new member's part.
Theme: The Responsibility of the Local Church in Evangelism.
The General Secretary prepared a paper for this Conference on the sub-
ject, "The Pastor's Part in a Modern Program of Evangelism." It will be of
interest to know that said paper was one of the two that was requested for
publication. In response to the request of the Conference the paper was given
to Dr. Goodell who wished to have it published by the Federal Council for
general distribution.
In response to the request of the last meeting of the General Board, the
General Secretary prepared a twenty-four page booklet during the year on
"Evangelism of the Youth" or "The Supreme Objective in Religious Educa-
tion," which booklet was printed by The Christian Publishing Association.
The Executive Secretary of the Department, Rev. McD. Howsare, has
demonstrated in a most remarkable manner the value of the Kingdom En-
listment Week Program. In fifteen different Churches representing eight
different Conferences and five different States, our Excutive Secretary has
put on the Kingdom Enlistment Week program. Some of these churches were
weak rural churches, some village churches, and some city churches. These
campaigns were put on during every month of the year, thus demonstrating
that Kingdom Enlistment Week is practicable for any type of Church and
for any season.
The results attending these campaigns are beyond the most sanguine
hopes the Board cherished when it adopted the Kingdom Enlistment Week
program. More than one thousand members have been received into the
Christian Church during the year in response to Kingdom Enlistment Week.
During the year the Executive Secretary has published a splendid booklet
on "How to Win Others to Christ," presenting in detail the program of King-
dom Enlistment Week so that any church can put on a Kingdom Enlistment
Week by following the instructions set forth in this booklet.
Rev. Howsare has not only conducted the fifteen Kingdom Enlistment
Week Demonstration Campaigns during the year, but has given a course of
lectures at three of our summer schools, spoken at the Girls' and Boys' Con-
ferences, and represented the Department of Evangelism and Life Service on
various other programs in the interest of the Church we all love.
Mention should also be made of the service rendered through this Depart-
ment in the General Secretary receiving into our denominational fellowship
during the past a pastor of a thriving Community Church in Maryland, to-
gether with his Congregation of a hundred and nine members. This Church
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
31
is located in the richest agricultural section of Maryland and the congrega-
tion is made up of the most substantial people of the community.
The pastor and Church were later received into the Eastern Virginia
Conference. More than sixty persons have united with this church since it
has become identified with us, and the Congregation has within the last six
months built one of the finest, if not the finest, rural church buildings and
parsonage in the entire denomination.
It is the conviction of the Board of Evangelism that it together with the
Home Mission Board might render a great service to the denomination and to
the Kingdom by getting in touch with other independent churches and laying
our principles before them.
In the interest of rendering a still larger service the coming year, the
Board submitted the following recommendations for the consideration of the
General Board:
1. That in following the example of several of the leading denominations,
the Christian Church make Evangelism the major emphasis in all its activities
r>r. Alva M. Kerr makes the first idedee to the Department of lOvaii^elism
and through all its departments the coming year that every Church and pastor
v.'ill rally to the challenge to help in winning twelve thousand new members
to the Christian Church before October 1, 1925.
2. That to this end the Department of Evangelism and Life Service plan
a Denominational Retreat to be held at Dayton, Ohio, the first week in Feb-
ruary, 1925, for confession, consecration, fellowship, and the study of modern
and constructive methods of Evangelism.
3. That owing to the unprecedented success which has attended the carry-
ing out of our progra-n of evangelism, we urge that all our churches observe
Kingdom Enlistment Week sometime during the year.
4. That a day combining the features of Rally Day and Roll Call Day
be observed by each church for the purpose of confession, consecration, prayer,
S2 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
and fellowship, — a day when the united church shall pledge to God, and to
humanity a more worthy service. At this time each church should have a
"Covenant of Reconsecration" placed at the altar, and each member invited
to sign the same as a testimony of sincerity and loyalty to the church and the
Kingdom.
5. That every church seek to revise its membership roll in a practicable
manner so as to ascertain the real membership of the various conferences.
This Board believes that the practice of some churches in revising the mem-
bership roll by merely dropping names from the roll because of non-attend-
ance, etc., is wrong, and would urge that the pastors and church Boards
recognize that the irregular and indifferent church members constitute a
definite evangelistic responsibility.
6. That our pastors and editors stress the "Church Attendance" Cam-
paign which the Federal Council Commission on Evangelism has launched for
the coming year, in the interest of creating regularity of attendance on the
part of all church members, and the attendance of the non-churchgoing group
found in every community.
7. That the "Evangelism of Youth" by Gage, be the textbook for train-
ing classes in Evangelism during the coming year.
8. That a simultaneous effort be made throughout the brotherhood for
a large ingathering in all our churches on Easter Sunday.
9. That a special appeal be made from the pulpits and through the press
for recruits for the Christian ministry.
10. That we call upon our pastors and Sunday-school teachers to stress
with a new fervor the destroying consequence of sin, the power of the Holy
Spirit, the need of repentance, confession, conversion, consecration, and service.
11. That we urge as a measure of conserving the results of the evangel-
istic efforts first, the holding of a one-week "Institute on Stewardship," follow-
ing a Kingdom Enlistment Week Program; second, that this Department assist
the pastors in securing suitable literature for holding pastors' training classes;
third, that the pastors preach a series of sermons on prayer, Bible reading,
family worship, and church attendance following Kingdom Enlistment Week.
12. That our pastors reinterpi-et to their congregations and communities
the responsibility of church membership, and the importance of Christian
people transferring their membership soon after moving from one community
to another.
13. That a budget of six thousand dollars ($6,000.00) be provided accord-
ing to the recommendation of the Executive Committee of the General Con-
vention. The Department assuming partial self-support the coming year and
full self-support thereafter.
14. That Rev. C. H. Hallenbeck of Ravena, New York, be appointed as a
member of the Board of Evangelism and Life Sei-vice to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the death of Rev. Geo. D. Eastes.
15. That a team of two be appointed by the Department of Evangelism
and Life Service to visit our colleges during the winter in the interest of Life
Service Work.
16. That each of the Regional Conventions be urged to employ a field
worker to assist in holding Kingdom Enlistment Week Campaigns in the
various churches of the Conferences.
17. That we instruct our Executive Secretary to adopt a plan of getting
in touch with parents in our churches, by means of correspondence or other-
wise, to urge them to pray that a child of their own may be led into the Chris-
tian ministry.

Kingdom Enlistment Week
Kingdom Enlistment Week is an intensive evangelistic campaign based
on modem psychological, pedagogical, and spiritual principles. It meets
present day conditions and is par excellence in reviving the church, training
workers, and winning souls for Christ and the church. Unprecedented things
have happened in those churches where it has been obsei'ved within the last
year. In eighteen churches, located in country, town, and city, there was an
average of over seventy accessions to each. We here give a suggested pro-
gram which your Executive Secretary follows out very closely in every detail.

Bureau of Christian Stewardship and Promotion
January 1, 1925, the Forward Movement as a temporary organ-
ization officially closed its work, and The Bureau of Christian
Stewardship and Promotion became its successor, to carry on all
work and plans not already provided for in the permanent organic
life of the General Convention of the Christian Church, such as
Stewardship, the collection of unpaid Forward Movement subscrip-
tions, the securing of subscriptions for continuing the work begun,
conference and local church organizational work and methods.
Rev. Warren H. Denison, D. D., is the Secretary of this Bureau
and Mr. J. 0. Winters is the Treasurer.
Department of Stewardship, Promotion and Social Service
Rev. Warren H. Denison, D, D., Secretary
The work of this department has been carried on in addition to the work
of the Forward Movement. It has had therefore but part-time service of your
Secretary. It has been the purpose of your Secretary to lay a strong and deep
foundation for the permanent work of Christian Stewardship and Finance in
the Christian Church. We have therefore had the following definite
Objectives
1. Help our brotherhood to realize the importance of stewardship in
their personal spiritual lives; to recognize that the whole matter of giving
and the use of money is a vital function of the soul, and of the spiritual life;
m.aking the spiritual content clear.
2. Secure the study of the Scriptures to find what they teach about
Christian Stewardship; they are a veritable treatise on the p-inci'^les of
stewardship, and give clear instruction en both personal and church finance.
3. See that this most important matter, this neglected subject, gets its
proper recognition in our thought, prayer, plans, program of life; giving it
the same consideration that we do other great basic themes, such as missions,
evangelism. Christian education, service, etc.
4. That each church observes the Stewardship-Finance period every year,
8& THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
putting on a real stewardship program in all departments of the church, apart
from the raising of money; a real study of the whole subject, November and
December being the stewardship months in our denominational church-year
program. We suggest that no other part of our program be allowed to divide
the church's attention during this period.
5. An annual every-member canvass in every church with a weekly offer-
ing and duplex envelopes. To help to do this in a proper way, we have issued
a twenty-page booklet free for pastors, stewardship secretaries, and others
interested.
6. Organizing a Stewardship-Finance Department in each Regional Con-
vention, each conference, and in each local church, with an active Stewardship-
Finance Secretary in charge.
7. A simultaneous every-member canvass by the churches of a conference
annually.
8. Enlisting and enrolling tithers.
9. Induce giving in a right spirit and in a right proportion, so that the
grace of giving may be developed.
10. Improved financial plans in the local churches and conferences.
11. Making clear the definitely accepted principles of Christian Steward-
ship.
12. Encouraging the churches to feel their full responsibility for the
training of their young and their whole constituency, in stewardship of life
and possessions.
13. See that the subject is regulai'ly presented on convention, conference
programs, and that special institutes are held.
Organization
Commendable progress has been made in the matter of securing Steward-
ship-Finance departments and secretaries in the conventions, conferencesy and

and the New York Eastern Conference in a five-day series. In many local
churches, at conference sessions, and at the Defiance Pastors' School we have
conducted such institutes. The summary of attendance and messages is given
in the Forward Movement report and is not repeated here. We have sought
to train workers in this line, so that the field might be covered more rapidly.
Some of the Convention and conference Stewardship-Finance men are doing
nicely.
We have assisted churches in their financial plans and campaign prepar-
atory to opening, rededicating, and dedicating their houses of worship; helped
organize local churches in their financial departments; directed and planned
their every-member canvass; and assisted in raising church debts.
The expenses of the department were $2,300.48.
United Stewardship Council
This Council meets annually. It does very constructive work. It has set
forth a statement of stewardship principles, sponsors a Stewardship Diary
and Budget Account Book, has selected and caused to be published a set of
eight mottoes, approves and issues Stewardship Study Books. It gathers the
annual financial statistics of the denominations. Your secretary is a member.
Literature
Our office has distributed many thousands of stewardship pamphlets and
assisted the churches and workers in securing suitable literature for occasions
and in quantities. The columns of The Herald of Gospel Liberty, Christian
Missionary, Journal of Christian Education, the Christian Sun, and The Sunday
School Herald have been open to the Stewardship message in a most gratifying
way.
Programs
The annual conferences and conference group meetings have given splendid
co-operation in putting this subject on their programs. The Summer Schools
38 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
are doing the same, until the message of Christian Stewardship is beginning to
get the ear and heart of our people. More than ever the churches and pastors
are planning for a worthy program during November and December.
Promotional
We have promoted every approved object and activity of the Christian
Church. We have emphasized the plans and objectives of the General Conven-
tion and Board. We have stressed the importance of the work allotted to each
period of the church year. We have held conferences with groups of workers,
counseled with conference and church officials, promoted better church organ-
ization, stressed the necessity of loyalty to our institutions, colleges, literature,
officiary, convention, and conference plans. We have sought greater co-opera-
tion, better efficiency, and more simplicity in all our work as a church.

Dayton, Ohio, October 15, 1924.
The Executive Board of The General Convention of the Christian Church
met in its regular annual session in Dayton, Ohio, October 15, 1924. The
session was called to order at ten a. m., in Room Number Forty-four, of The
Christian Publishing Association Building, by Rev. F. G. Coffin, President of
the General Convention. The members present were Rev. F. G. Coffin, Rev.
D. B. Atkinson, Rev. J. F. Burnett, Mr. John G. Myers, Hon. 0. W. Whitelock,
Dr. W. A. Harper, Rev. Roy C. Helfenstein, Rev. C. H. Rowland, Rev. E. A.
Watkins, Rev. W. P. Minton, and Rev. O. S. Thomas.
Prayer was offered by Rev. E. A. Watkins.
The Secretary submitted a report covering the activities of the Board,
and the Convention office, during the year. The report contained an itemized
report of the administrative expenses for the* year, and showed that nineteen
different accounts had been handled, and $51,900.01 in money received and
disbursed. The books and accounts were verified by the auditors and certified
correct.
It also showed that unusual care had been taken in the preparation of
the call, and additional expense incurred, in an effort to interest all of our
pastors and churches in the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in
America. The reminder call was in the form of a personal letter from the
President of the Convention. Offerings from 135 churches, amounting to
$583.54, and from sixteen individuals, amounting to $54.50 had been received.
The total amount received was $638.04. We have on the roll 965 churches,
135 of them giving an average of $3.74% to this call. Had the other 830
given as much, there would have been added to the offering from the churches,
$3,107.35, making a total offering from the churches of $3,690.35.
Referring to the Convention fund the report stated that less than half of
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 39
the churches enrolled in the conferences of the Convention responded to the
call for funds, and but few more than half the conferences responded.
It showed that a call had been mailed to the ministers and church clerks,
as authorized by the Convention, at Burlington, N. C, in the interest of the
Aged Ministers' Home. That this call had been followed up with a Reminder
Call. That during the year 228 churches responded to the call, remitting
$5,737.27. That in addition to the offering from the churches, forty personal
gifts were received, varying in amounts from one dollar to one thousand. The
total amount received was $7,247.52. That the gentleman who promised Five
Thousand Dollars, when twenty thousand had been paid, had paid $2,500.00
of the amount, and was ready and willing to pay the remaining $2,500.00, when
the twenty thousand had been raised.
That great care had been taken to inform the pastors and churches con-
cerning the time for the offering to the Near East Relief Fund, and the im-
portance of remitting it through the Convention Office. Only a) small number
of churches and Sunday-schools heeded the call, remitting $2,730.55. The
report stated that many of our churches had made large offerings to the
Relief Funds, but had allowed the general relief workerst to carry their offer-
ings away with them, or later had sent them to the General Relief Committee.
These General Relief workers had also gone into our churches at the times
of the regular offerings to missions, and other lines of work due, and in many
instances the offering they insisted upon interfered with the offering then
due to be taken by the church.
Offerings had been received for the General Convention Fund from 357
churches, aggregating $2,855.22, and that thirty-five conferences remitted
offerings to the General Convention Fund, amounting to $651.83.
The report was considered and adopted and is filed in the Records of 1924.
In the matter of Union Christian College, Rev. E. A. Watkins, President
of the College, made a verbal statement of the condition of the College at
the present time. No action was taken.

The Board of Evangelism and Life Service submits the following reso-

and discussed, relative to the work of the Department of Evangelism, and the
closing of the Forward Movement, which resulted in the adoption of the follow-
ing resolution, offered by Rev. 0. S. Thomas:
Inasmuch as the present organization of the Forward Movement, known
as the Department of Stewardship and Promotion, has started a campaign
for the continuation of the pledges of the Forward Movement, and has de-
veloped plans for the promotion of stewardship among the churches, therefore
be it resolved, that this department be continued on the same basis and organi-
zation on which it now operates, under the direction of the Executive Board,
THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL 41
until the next General Convention, and that this department be the successor
to the Forward Movement in every particular, and that it be known as the
Bureau of Stewardship and Promotion,
The following matter, offered by Rev. George C. Enders, Dean of the
Divinity School, Defiance College, Defiance, Ohio, was submitted for con-
sideration :
Therefore it seems to me that the Christian denomination should fully
and frankly investigate the Christian Divinity School as a factor in our sys-
tem of Christian education in the hope of securing a united support for the
policy that would be based upon the results of such investigation. With this
in view I would respectfully recommend that this Board request the President
of The General Convention of the Christian Church to appoint a special com-
mission on ministerial education charged with the duty of ascertaining the
status of the Christian Divinity School in the work of modern Christian Edu-
cation.
Rev. R. C. Helfenstein offered the following resolution, and moved its
adoption:
Resolved, That the Executive Committee appoint a commission of five,
for the purpose of making a thorough investigation and survey of the courses
offered by our schools for ministerial training, and that said commission make
itn investigation and survey with the idea in mind of recommending to the

42 THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
Report of the President of
The General Convention of the Christian Church
October 1, 1923 - September 30, 1924.
The work of the president for the past year has differed in few respects
from that of preceding years. Outside of his executive duties, the character
of which may be inferred from the report of the convention secretary, he
has officiated at special events such as dedications, organizations, reopenings,
ordinations, anniversaries, etc., among the churches, and represented the con-
vention at conferences of our own body, and in interdenominational gatherings.
In the conferences of the Western Christian Convention he has represented
both Palmer College and the General Convention in the same visitation, divid-
ing the expense of such visitation equally between the two.
In the conduct of his office he has traveled 21,694 miles during the year,
attended forty-two conferences and conventions, and spoken in sixteen different
States, delivering 178 addresses. The total cost for the year has been $2,112.65,
of which $1,500.00 has been salary, and $612.65 including all other items of
expense. There has been remitted to the convention treasury about $250.00
from these field efforts.

of tha^nks. Motion carried.

We recommend that the Bureau of Christian Stewardship and Promotion
at once begin devoting its special attention toward putting the Every-member
Canvass and the Budget System into conferences and churches, with the
thought that this is our most important financial aim at the present time.
We recommend that a committee, of which the Superintendent of the
Bureau of Christian Stewardship and Promotion shall be the chairman, shall
apportion to the conferences the total amount of the $250,000 budget sug-
gested, said apportionment to be based upon a consideration of the value of
the church property, pastor's salary, membership of the church, and previous
giving.
We further recommend that the Bureau of Christian Stewardship and
Promotion, in co-operation with the conference officials, organize the churches
of the conferences for a simultaneous conference campaign for the Every-
Member Canvass in each local church,, the same to be conducted immediately
preceding the close of the conference year.
And we further recommend that the budget shall be raised by seasons
during the periods as follows:
General Convention — January.
Foreign Missions — February, March, April.
Evangelism — May.
Home Missions — June, July, August.
Christian Education — September, October, November.

COLLEGES
Defiance College and Christian Divinity School
DEFIANCE, OHIO
Defiance is the educational center for the Christians of the North and East
The attendance for the past two years has steadily increased and has been
practically up to capacity. The rej:istratlon of September, 1924, indicates an
increase especially in the number of students from Christian Church communities.
In June, 1924, forty-nine young people were graduated with the degree.
Bachelor of Arts, and one with the degree. Bachelor of Divinity. Twenty of the
fifty were preparing for professional Christian service.
The equipment of the college including campus, buildings, library, labora-
tories, gymnasiums, etc., is new and ample for the students now being cared for.
Increases in all these are necessary to care for the increased attendance which
the college is very likely to have if these additions are made.
The scholastic standing is a source of pride. Defiance is a member of the
North Central Association of Colleges and of the Ohio College Association. In
addition to this she has the full recognition as a standard college.
The endowment is not so large as it should be. The present total Is over
$450,000.00 with approximately $200,000.00 in unpaid pledges from the endowment
campaigns in hand to be added as paid. This must be increased to continue to
maintain the high standing.
The faculty is carefully chosen. All are consecrated Christians and are well
prepared with college and university training.
50 THECHRISTIANANNUAL
THE COLLEGE offers the regular courses usually offered in a college of
Arts and Sciences with opportunity for strong courses in Music, Home Econom-
ics, Elementary and Secondary Education, Expression, Business Administration;
Students are accepted for pre-engineering and pre-medic courses.
THE CHRISTIAN DIVINITY SCHOOL offers a regular seminary course
leading to the postgraduate degree ;ind supervises a collegiate course for

helpful influences.

At the last annual session, held at West Liberty, November 9-10, 1922, action
was takeiji to the effect that it is the sense of the association that If its assets
can be properly and safely safeguarded, the executive board shall take over the
business of the association and that the annual sessions should be discontinued.
The prevailing sentiment Is that the assets and responsibilities of the association
should be taken over by the regional Central Christian Convention, provided
it can be done legally. In the meantime the executive board is conducting the
affairs of the association, meeting semi-annually.

Deceased Ministers
How they have fared we can not know
Till we, too, clasp Death's hand and go.
When sight shall fail and earth grow dim.
As they did, into silence grim,
From which no answer greets our cry.
And only echces rise and die.
Yet Hope and Faith, like prophets, bide
By Christian graves, on either side.
And with assured, undoubting mien
Point upward, confident, serene.
Declaring, "Death will conquered be
By Life and Immortality."

THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
Rev. Mrs. Georgia Bernard Weaton
Ne^v York Eastern Conference
Her death was occasioned by an accident April 24. She had
been to a W. C. T. U. gathering at Albany, New York, and was
returning home when in some unknown manner her wagon was
plunged off a high bridge into a shallow creek, where her body
was later discovered. She had been active in the W. C. T. U.,
having been president of the county organization of Otsego
County, New York, from 1904 to 1916. Later she served three
years as State Evangelist for the W. C. T. U. in New York
State.
As a Christian minister she held only two regular charges,
that of Quaker Street, New York, from 1916 to 1919 during
which time, June 3, 1917, she was ordained by the New York
Eastern Conference at the annual session held at Medway.
The last years of her life she was pastor of the Christian
Church at East Cobleskill, and also served the Huntersland
Church as a supply.
She was the author of many beautiful poems but as they
were never compiled in permanent form they make no special
contribution to literature and will live only in the hearts of

Carversville Christian Orphanage
Rev. liindsay F. Johnson, Superintendent
Very few institutions of the Christian Chinx-h have made better prog-ress
than the new orplianagg at Carversville. There has been a very liberal response
from our people for this worfhy institution. In answer to prayer and faith every
real necessary need has been supplied. Liberal donations of food, money, and
clothing' have been made during- the year. The institution is in flrst-class con-
dition, has a fine outlook and a very bright future. At the end of the second
year there were twenty wards in the home from five different States of the
Union. The organization has ample housing accommodations to supply the needs
of the Church for many years. Additional improvements and more land wrill be
needed as the institution grows. The whole church is getting behind the orphan-
age work, and a great service is being rendered in the interest of our orphans
and dependent children.
The institution is managed by a Board of Trustees selected from Eastern
and ^Vestern Christian Conferences. The personnel of the Board this year serv-
ing till the second Wednesday in July Annual Election is: F. R. Beach. Irving-

C'liarlos I). Johnston, Superintendent
The Christian Orphanage, Elon College, N. C, an institution of the Christian
denomination, openv.d its doors for the admittance of children January 1, 1907,
and since that time two hundred and forty-eight fatherless and homeless chil-
dren have had a home there. One hundred and nine are now in its care. It is
managed by a Board of seven trustees elected by the Southern Christian Con-
vention, Mr. W. K. Holt of Burlington, N. C, is chairman. (_has. D. Johnston,
Elon College, N. C, is Secretary-Treasurer and Superintendent.
It has two large brick buildings where the children have a happy home. Its
property value is $100,000.00 with $21,000.00 endowment. We have one hundred
and eighty acres of farm land. About ninety acres open and in cultivation. The
boys are taught agriculture, dairying, trucking, hog raising, shoe repairing, etc.
The girls are taught all kinds of domestic v. ork. sewing, dressmaking, cooking,
laundrying, and many other things. All the children go to school nine months
in the year. Most of them tinish high school before reaching eighteen years of
age and some get from one to two years in College. It is a home for the
fatherless and homeless. It is supported entirely by freewill offerings. We ask
Sunday-schools to make monthly offerings. The churches and Sunday-schools
are asked to make special Thanksgiving and Easter offerings and individual
offerings are highly appreciated. Many of the Ladies' Aid Societies make
dresses for the girls and little suits for boys, which is a great help to us in the
work.

Rev. George Benton Garner
Rev. George Benton Gainer was born in Ohio, in 1850, and
ordained a minister in the Christian Church, on October 5, 1874,
and on October 5, 1924, the fiftieth anniversary of the ordina-
tion was celebrated by the Christian Church in Cairo, Ohio, of
which he is pastor. He has the distinction of having spent the
entire time of his ministry in pastoral service. He preached
his first sermon at St. Johns, Ohio, in May, 1870, from the text
"/ find no fault in this man." From his first pastorate, until
now, not a moment of time has passed that he has not been
pastor of some church.
The church at Cairo paid high tribute to Dr. Garner in the
celebration. The sermon of the occasion was by Dr. Garner,
subject, "Fifty Years an Ordained Minister." In the picture
the church represents the type of building in which he preached
in his early life, and especially the one in which he preached
his first sermon. It is the picture of a real cake, which his wife
had prepared. It was in the shape of a church, and weighed
twenty pounds. It was surrounded with a lawn of grass, in
which stood fifty candles, representing the fifty years of min-
isterial service. On the top of the church steeple was a cross of
gold. On one arm of the cross were the figures, 1874, and on
the other the figures, 1924. Dr. Garner is, and has always been
a member of the Northwestern Ohio Conference. Was a student
in Union Christian College, and received his degree of Doctor of
Divinity, from Findlay College, in 1913.

People's Church of
Dover, Delaware, has
within the past year
erected and equipped
one of the most modem
church plants in the en-
tire country, authorities
in Religious Education
declaring that the Sun-
day-school feature of
the plant might easily
be classed as one of the
two best co-ordinated
and equipped Depart-
mental Sunday-school
buildings constructed
thus far.
The building program
included the complete
rebuilding of the old
church and the erection
of a large Community
Center and Sunday-
school Building, as well
as a beautiful Memorial
Chimes Tower.
The total cost of the
building and equipment
was something over $150,000. The church has a fine pipe organ, a
set of tubular chimes, standard gymnasium, shower bathroom, bowl-
ing alleys, separate assembly rooms for each Sunday-school Depart-
ment, separate rooms for each Sunday-school class, and clubrooms
for the young people. There are thirty-five rooms in all in the
building.

The Sunday-school is completely graded and is organized along
the most modern lines, Mr. Hermon Eldredge and Mrs. F. E. Bullock,
of the Board of Christian Education, having had charge of the
reorganization work.
The church has two Missionary Societies, a Brotherhood, a Boy's
Club, and several organized Sunday-school classes- Church Night
programs are held on Wednesday night, the women of the church
being divided into eight circles of service, each circle taking its turn
in furnishing supper on Church Night, at cost.
Miss Martha L. Denison is the Director of Religious Education
for People's Church. Mr. John B. Hutton, a prominent attorney, is
the General Superintendent of the Sunday-school.

THE NEW AMERICAN MISSION
Marguerite Youmans, Director New American Work
The first attendants of the New American Mission were remnants
of what had been an Italian Mission, conducted by the Baptists. When
this disbanded, our denomination, whose church at Haverhill is located
in the heait of the foreign section, took up the opportunity for service.
The Home Mission Board financed and directed the new project with
Miss Frieda Kirkendall as director.
From a handful of Italian children the work has grown until
through all organizations three hundred families are reached. From
one nationality the group has enlarged, including Armenians, Greeks,
Russians, Polish, Lithuanians, French, and Hebrews.
The mission quarters were first located in the upper floor of the
parsonage. Circumstances made it necessary for the mission work
to have a permanent location, and one large enough to meet the
needs. This prompted the purchase of the Christian Service Home.
It is located directly opposite from the parsonage and ideally situated
for Americanization work.
Here a small but well selected library is open to children during
after-school hours and Saturdays. Four difl'erent groups meet here
weekly, i. e.. Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, Busy Bee Club, and Sewing
Class. Volunteer workers from the Armenian and Italian groups
serve as leaders of these organizations.
Home and evening classes in English are conducted for the
mothers and fathers. Thirty-five women were enrolled in 1923-24 in
English classes. Ten men attended evening classes. The classes are
held biweekly.
The adults who have acquired enough English attend the Amer-
ican church service. Five men are members of the church. About
twenty children from the Mission Sunday-school have joined the church.
The greatest influence comes through the Church School. It is
small but efficiently organized and graded. The enrollment from
September, 1923, to September, 1924, was one hundred twenty, with
an average attendance of sixty. Ninety dollars and twenty-one cents
in offering was sent to Home and Foreign Missions. Since September,
1924, twenty-seven new pupils have enrolled.
The program is similar to th^it of an American school, with the
exception of social activities. Community work demands more of
parties and entertainment. The church has a moving picture equip-
ment. Educational films are shown several Sunday evenings during
the vdnter months.
The socials are cosmopolitan groups. Sociability between different
nationalities is encouraged.

Riverdale Christian
Church, Dayton, Ohio,
Miami Ohio Con-
ference
Rev. Edwin B. Plory,
Pastor
The Riverdale Christian Church was organized, and Rev. Edwin B. F'lory
installed as pastor, on Sunday, February 3, 1924. The above is a temporary
building, which has been erected for use of the membership, but which is
already inadequate for the rapidly growing congregation, and steadily increas-
ing Sunday-school. This building has eight separate rooms and a church
seating capacity of 450. It was entered on a rainy Sunday, May 4, with 240
at Sunday-school. From that day to this there has been a steady increase
until the present enrollment is 372 in the Church School and promises of 400
in the near future. An addition, 50x32, is now under way which will pro-
vide excellent rooms for the Cradle Roll, the Beginners, and the Primary de-
partments. There will be space for two classes of each age in the Beginners
and Primary, and ample room for their own worship services. The removal
of these three departments from the present building will make possible a
separate Junior Department with six classes, one for boys and girls of each
age therein.
The completed building will easily care for a Church School of 650 with
an auditorium of 450 when necessary. It will make possible a kitchen and a
dining room to seat 168. The adult men and women will have separate class
rooms, threa in all, and have ample space for 200.
This will leave the church room for the Inter-
mediates and young people, of whom there are
more than a hundred now enrolled.
There were one hundred and forty-nine per-
sons enrolled in the original membership. Total
enrollment now, 257. On the occasion of organ-
izing, Rev. Frank G. Coffin, D. D., President of
the General Christian Convention, preached the
sermon, and Rev. J. F. Burnett, Secretary of the
Convention, conducted the formal organization
and installation of the pastor.

Rev. W. Rollo Boehringer
has the distinction of being
pastor of the Enon Christian
Church, which was organized
in 1806, as a direct result of
the Cane Ridge Revival.
When this church was organ-
ized, Ohio was but a little
more than three years old,
and many Indians and wild
animals lurked in the dense
forest, and many poisonous
serpents crawled in the rank
grass which surrounded the
first place of worship. The
first building was of logs, the
floor of puncheons, the fur-
nace a huge fireplace about
ten feet wide, and windows of
greased paper. Great logs of
wood were used for fuel, and
the house lighted at night
with tallow candles. The ev-
ening service always began
at "early candle lighting." In
this house, Elders David Pur-
viance and Barton Stone, of
Cane Ridge history, often held service. This building is said to be the
first house of worship dedicated in the community extending many miles
m every direction. The deaccnship of the church has been in the Baker
family continuously since 1806, father, son, and grandson covering a
period of one hundred and eighteen years. J. D. Baker, the grandson,
IS yet m service, he having been ordained in 1881. Rev. Melyne D.
Baker, a pioneer minister of the Christians, is a son of this church.

bell, he and his brother went to the altar, and afterward he united with the
Christian Church. He was baptized in "the branch" not far from the college
building, and, by invitation of Rev. Dr. Weston, took charge of the young
people's choir. While yet in early manhood he decided to enter the Christian
ministry, but his health failing, he was compelled to give up his studies, and
consequently his desire for the pulpit. His father was at one time agent of
The Christian Publishing Association.
In 1887 he located in Toledo, Ohio, where he became greatly interested in
Sunday-school work, and became the Superintendent of a very successful
Sunday-school and held the position for thirty-one years. During that time
the school increased from 150 to about 1.500 in membership. He was called,
in 1889, to be the General Secretary of the Ohio Sunday School Association,
which position he held for ten years. In 1899 he was called to be the General
Secretary of the International Sunday School A.'^sociation, covering North
America. This position he held until 1920, when he was retired for life, on
full salary, to the position of Consulting General Secretary, and a younger
man was elected as General Secretary. From 1910 to 1914, he was also one
of the Secretaries of the World's Association, in coni unction with his work
in North America.
He was a world traveler, having visited repeatedly, every State in the
Union, every province in Canada, Cuba, Mexico, Newfoundland, and Alaska.
He also attended World's Conventions abroad, in London, Jerusalem, Rome,
Zurich, and Tokyo.
Mr. Lawrance is also the author of a number of books on Sunday-school
work that have had wide circulation.
He died May 1, 1924.

Christian Training at Indian School
The Christian Church
is represented in the In-
dian Work through the
Home Missions Council
and the Council of Women
for Home Missions by
supporting the Religious
Work Director in the
Theodore Roosevelt
School, Fort Apache,
Arizona.
At present there are
eight Religious Work Di-
rectors as well as six
workers directly appointed
by denominational boards,
acting in the larger gov-
ernment schools. These
workers are under the
supervision of G. E. E.
Linquist, Haskell Insti-
tute, Lawrence, Kansas.
The program of work is
fundamentally the same in
all these schools including
Sunday services and week-
day religious instruction.
Children in the Theo-
dore Roosevelt Indian School are drawn from the Navajo resei*-
vation in northern Arizona and northeastern New Mexico. They
represent Catholic, Presbyterian, Baptist, and Christian Re-
formed mission fields. Religious services are held each Sunday
morning — the Protestants attending tne Sunday-school under
the direction of the Religious Work Instructor, the Cathol'cs
attending mass conducted by a priest from Whiteriver, a near-by
Apache government school and agency. On Tuesday evenings
instruction classes are held for the older children who attend
night school.
The Sunday-school is organized with three classes for school
children and three classes for employees and their children. The
Tuesday evening classes include regular religious instruction
and meetings of the Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A.
Three-fourths of the three hundred and seventy-five children
in the Theodore Roosevelt Indian School are boys, the parents
not caring to send their children away to school. This may be
due to the fact that parties sent out to secure children are
usually composed entirely of men. A party composed of the
Religious Work Director, another woman, and a Navajo inter-
preter recently had unusual success on the reservation, the
parents being perfectly willing to allow their girls to leave the
hogan to attend school in company with the white women.
Visits of the parents to the school offer an opportunity to be-
come more familiar with the background and home life of the
children. Visits on the reservation and in the hogans develop a
greater understanding and appreciation of the great strides the
children must make before Christ will have first place in the
land of the Navajo. Elizabeth Howsare,
Religious Work Director, Theodore Roosevelt Indian School.

lie*. Ilobert Gee
Robert Gee was born near
Gregoryville, Ky., March 6,
1840, and died in Gregory-
ville, Ky., February 29, 1924.
His grandfather organized
the Barretts Creek Christian
Church, September 3, 1803.
It was represented in the first
session of the Kentucky
Christian Conference, which
met in 1804. His grandfath-
er was present at the confer-
ence held in the "Old" Leb-
anon Church, Surry County,
Virginia, in 1794, when all
human names were rejected
and the name Christian ac-
cepted. Robert Gee united
with the Barretts Creek
Christian Church, October 17,
1857, and in 1871 was elected
clerk of the church, which
position he held for many
years, and perhaps was in
office at the time of his death.
He was ordained a minister
in the Christian Church, Oc-
tober 22, 1877, at Cora Hill,
Ky., by Elders M. L. Maddix,
H. L. Forest, and B. F. Boil-
ing.
He served the Middle, Ky.,
Christian Conference, as sec-
retary, from 1871 to 1890,
when he was elected secre-
tary of the Kentucky State
Christian Conference. For
many years he purposed in
his "heart to build a church
on the site of the old organ-
ization, which he accom-
plished in the year 1920,
when the house was dedicated
by Rev. Henry Crampton, of
Ohio. This he regarded as
the crowning work of his life.

ence, and remained a
member of it until 1881, when she removed to Iowa. She held pastor-
ates in Ohio, Iowa, and Missouri, and the eventide of her life was
spent in the West. She was the first woman ordained to the gospel
ministry by the Christians, and, as far as known, the first to be
ordained by any church in modern times.

AFRO-CHRISTIAN CONVENTION
Ministerial Directory
Care has been taken to carefully check up the ministerial list with the
reports, and time has been spent in putting the names in alphabetical order,
but only according to the first letter. There is a discrepancy in the number
here recorded and the one in the General Summary. Several names are
duplicated, being reported by two conferences. The list and post-office ad-
dresses are as nearly correct as they could be made with the information at
hand. In this list there is no distinction made between the ordained and the
licentiate members.

THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
281
MINISTERIAL DIRECTORY
The Ministerial Directoiy is as correct as time, care, and service could
make it. It was checked up by three different persons, in three different ways,
from all the information available. Some names are in it that were not
reported by conference officials. They are the names of aged, superannuated,
or infirm ministers, some of whom do not reside within reasonable reach of a
Christian Conference, and some others are not reported because of a con-
ference rule requiring certain attendance upon yearly sessions in order to hold
membership. Some names and post-office addresses are given where confer-
ence membership is omitted. In such cases extra care was taken to verify
the absence of such names in conference reports. In one case of omission the
telegraph was used to secure definite information. Quite a number of names
appear in two conferences. There is no way in the Convention Office of
correcting such statements. Neither the General Convention nor the Christian
Annual can confer conference membership, nor can it determine to which of
two conferences one belongs when one's name appears in two reports. Some
names were included in reports with very indifferent post-office addresses.
Addressing one's mail to Chicago, New York, or Boston, without giving a
street or building number, is not sufficient. In one case a special delivery
letter was mailed, asking for a more definite address of ministers. The Min-
isterial Directory is confusing and inaccurate because of these deficiencies.
Whatever discrepancies occur between the conference reports and the directory

Gentlemen : —
We are sending' you our idea of the
set we are using.
"To Those Who Want It 100 Per Cent. Right"
I have had the LePage Individual
Communion Cup Service in thres large
Churches, namely : Central Church,
Wilkes-Barre, Penna. : Calvary Church,
Philadelpliia, and now First Church,
Los Angeles, Calif.
The world is full of Individual Com-
munion Devices, but there is only ONE,
the LePage Individual Communion
Service. No Pastor or Congregation
who has ever used this Equipment once
would think of using any other.
The Folding Tables are the only kind
for Large Churches, and Round Wooden
Trays for small Churches.
